Finally about ready to leave film for digital photography, I'm sold on the small superzooms.
Have you experience and preferences to share between what seem to me the most competitive and adaptable choices, the Panasonic ZS1 and the Fuji F70 EXR? ZS3 is out of my budget, though the video capacity is stunning.
What about mountain photography, route shots, and the like? Battery life, auto-functions in alpine conditions, other tech details? (I don't need to hear more about the ZS1 mode switch, which has been beaten to death in the reviews and comments.)
